£422 including a brake fluid charge, this is the service that included plugs and filters. Not cheap!

I know that my BMW labour charge is now £165 p/h plus VAT. Close to £200 an hour!
Interesting, I know we were in the same boat in terms of having our car deliveries delayed by lockdown (is that really almost two years ago now?!!) but mine is showing it's due its first oil service in March rather than June (so two years from manufacture rather than two years from delivery).

I took the 5-year, 50k mile service pack in a Black Friday offer back in 2020; can't remember exactly what I paid but I know it worked out at comfortably less than the cost of two services with a BMW main dealer (and hence it seemed an easy decision given I intend to keep the car for at least 5 years!).
I did the same. I thought it was 4 years though?
In fact I've just checked, you are correct.
Oil due March
Brake fluid May 2023
Inspection March 2023
Vehicle check March 2024

A bit odd.

Also should really be from first registration I would have thought.
I've just checked and my Service Inclusive is showing until March 2025. I may email them so it's accurate to June 2025.
